Algoma District School Board schools reveal their character through substantial fundraising efforts

Each year our students, staff and school communities throughout the district take on fundraising efforts for a variety of causes. In the spring and summer (2015), one of those fundraising efforts was for the Algoma Residential Community Hospice (ARCH).

ARCH Hospice provides compassionate care through end-of-life to Algoma District families at no cost. The emotional, spiritual, and physical comfort of residents and their loved ones is ARCH's highest priority. They offer a home-away-from-home during one of life’s most important moments: the end-of-life journey. ARCH Hospice is only partially government funded, requiring $750,000 annually in community support as well as the generosity of over 130 volunteers to provide their services to the community.
